wait for the pictures to upload!

It's been way too long, haha. In all seriousness, the past couple months have been seriously hectic. November and December was packed with a ton of church events and unit exams, plus spirit week! Ahh, I didn't even upload those pictures yet. Maybe I'll get the chance.. this summer. LOL. Nonetheless, I feel as though I spent my winter break well despite the fact that I didn't do two weeks worth of homework and catching up which is the reason why I'm not at school right now and that I'm not even doing it right now.. O_o HAHA.

AB Samahan High School Conference at San Diego State University - "Lights, Camera, Action!"
SCPA PAPIA took home 2nd place in the talent show.

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.. to winter break. haha.
The day after Christmas in Manteca, Day 2. This was taken before we headed to church that day. After church we had lunch at Freshchoice in Modesto, went home to change, then went to Ardenfair in Sacramento. The mall was whack, but it was refreshing when my sisters and I walked over to Urban Outfitters.

Day 3, we planned to go to downtown SF for the day then go back to San Diego on Monday but found out that we'd be staying for a week. I swear, that made my year. Took the Dublin Bart all the way to Powell and I windowshopped. After, we took the bart to south SF to my sister's pad.

Day 4, we chilled at home for a while, but headed in the afternoon to Tanforan to watch Sherlock Holmes. I def recommend it; it was a dope movie. I don't watch many movies so much anymore because I'm always super busy, but I wanna watch so many movies after watching trailers :T

Day 5, my sisters and I jumped into the car and headed to Haight/Ashbury St. Met some cool cats at True, what up Mitchell and Monique! After we went to Twin Peaks and took some pictures. Then we dropped by Eggettes for my first time.. omnomnom!







1/3, f5.6, no tripod

Day 6, we hit up Fatlace in Japantown where I bought the Illest crewneck (mad comfy!) and some stickers. Haha. After, we dropped by Upper Playground on Haight. By the time we were done looking around at Upper Playground, it was only 6pm so we drove back into time and went to Serramonte :x For a while my sisters were in Forever 21 (which is a store I will never, ever step into ever again.) so I walked around by myself but caught up with them at the Mac in Macy's and I bought new eyeliner. Later, we went to Planet Yogurt where I bought taro froyo with coconut and strawberries OMNOMNOM. By then it was only around 8pm, so we all walked to the Target and sat in the furniture section, reminiscing. :]

Day 7, aka, New Year's Even!, we ran a couple errands at Serramonte (again, lol) and bought Planet Yogurt in the morning, haha! We went downtown later on Van Ness to this vintage store called American Rag. It was mad expensive stuff though! After, we dropped by the Urban Outfitters in downtown again, then drove by Haight/Ashbury, again, HAHA. Before we headed home, we went to Eggettes again cause we were mad hungry, lol. Later, my younger sister and I drove to SFO to pick up our uncle and proceeded to Beijing buffet our family was gonna eat at to celebrate NYE. When we finished eating, our parents just sat and talked for the longest time, so my sisters and I were trying to figure out what to do to celebrate NYE.. it was mega hard trying to come up with something to do for all of us since Kayla's only 13 years old. :T We ended up just going back home and watching the ball drop. Although, our kuya dropped off some goodies and Nina and I had some happy time watching the ball drop >:]

Day 8, my sister's and I went to our cousin's house for a brunch. Our grandparents came over, but after we finished eating, we passed out on the couch, haha. But when we all woke up, we went on a little adventure with Kuya Kevin to Imaginary Zebra and The Hundreds which we found out were both closed :T So we took a trip to Japantown and explored around there. It ws raining that day, but luckily I found this plastic bag in one of the markets and was able to completely cover my camera XD Later we went to Eggettes (AGAIN, LOL.) where Kuya Kevin had eggettes for the first time then played Chubby Bunny with them, haha. It was still mega early so we went to Tanforan and messed around in Target. After, we went back to my cousin's and watched the beginning of Phat Girls, LOL.

Day 8, my last night in the bay! At first I packed all my stuff cause I was initially supposed to be leaving on the 8:30pm flight back to San Diego that night, but my aunt called my mom asking me to stay another night, YAY! So we all left and went to church in Burlingame. After church we headed to Hokkaido in Foster City and saw hella people from church there LOL. Then knowing our parents, we sat there for an hour doing nothing because our parents were too busy conversing. Later, we left and went to Valleyfair in San Jose. I met up and kicked it with Gonzalo, Mindy, Rolo, Jed, Ron, and Nathan for a bit. It was nice meeting you all! Credits to Rolo for the group pic. After walking around VF forever, I dipped and kicked it with my sisters for the remainder of the time. When we went home, we left again and went to Twin Peaks to retake some shots. I still didn't have a tripod, but I tried working with longer shutter speeds to catch some tiny light trails, haha. Then we headed back home and had piiiiizza, omnomnomnom.


*credits to Rolo for this group picture.

Day 9, was the last morning my sister and I spent in San Francisco. We headed to our cousin's house in South City for breakfast, then said our goodbyes and caught flight 805 back to San Diego at 11:35am. I didn't even do anything when I got home but take a shower. : haha!
